If you were stranded on a deserted island and had one electrical outlet.....

Post by aaatoysandmore »

what ONE game would you bring/have? Just ONE now no twosies or honorable mentions. [:'(]

For me it's a very tough question but I think maybe it would be that one Magic the Gathering game around 2000 (Duel of the Planeswalker) where you could build your own decks and play against the computer with them and then give them to the computer ai to play against you in something called a gauntlet (you had to win 20 matches in a row with your deck).

If only it was fixed and working there would be only one choice - World In Flames.

However its not yet at that point so....

....has to be Civ IV - Beyond The Sword.

Eve online. I'm convinced you need to be on a desert island to be able to play that game.

I would take my MP3 player, I need music.

I would then construct various board games out of local materials and go quietly mad playing myself.

SPWAW, for personal reasons. My name is mentioned on one of the Megacampaigns, and I assisted in the development of the OOBs, in particular the USMC. I used the research material I've accumulated and put it into the game. When a volunteer gets to contribute it's a sweet feeling. AFAIK, the USMC OOB in SPWAW is the most accurate of any game ever. That was my proudest moment as a gamer.
